QDI 1000™
Microspectrophotometer
Spectral range from the deep UV to the mid-IR (200-2100 nm with all options) by transmission, reflectance, polarization and fluorescence microspectroscopy.
A new approach to spectral analysis of microscopic samples.The identification, classification and quantification of microscopic samples and sampling areas is becoming ever more important in science, medicine and industry.
UV-visible-NIR microspectrophotometry, which integrates UV-visible-NIR spectroscopy with the magnifying power of a microscope, is the perfect technique for such applications. As individual components, the UV-visible-NIR spectrophotometer and optical microscope are simple to use. However, when combined together into a system, a number of facts must be considered…facts that are inherent in both the microspectrophotometer as an instrument and the techniques being utilized. Only microspectrophotometers specifically developed for microanalysis guarantee accurate and precise results…microspectrophotometers such as the QDI series from CRAIC Technologies.
CRAIC Technologies has designed and developed the QDI series of microspectrophotometers by working in conjunction with the leaders in their fields. The QDI series utilizes the very latest technology and the highest quality components to give unmatched performance when measuring absorbance, transmittance, reflectance, polarization or fluorescence from samples as small as 1 micron. With a spectral range that spans from the deep ultraviolet into the near infrared, these tools are flexible, powerful and durable. Best yet, the technical and scientific talents of the people of CRAIC Technologies back these instruments insuring years of the highest performance.

Microspectroscopy of larger samples.Microspectroscopy of miniature samples and sampling areas can be done with the QDI QDS
II™ Stereomicrospectrophotometer™. This is essential when your samples won’t fit in a
standard microspectrophotometer or are heterogeneous on the microscopic scale.
Document Analysis: On the micron scale, spectra of paper are highly variable. However, when larger areas are measured with an instrument such as the QDS II, the spectra are reproducible. For this reason, the QDS II is the essential tool for spectroscopic document analysis.
QDI QDS II Stereomicrospectrophotometer
The QDI QDS II Stereomicrospectrophotometer is designed to measure microspectra
of larger samples and larger sampling areas. This is the only instrument of its kind: it
can measure samples much smaller than any standard UV-visible spectrophotometer
but avoid many of the inhomogeneity issues seen with microspectrophotometers that
measure areas on the order of a micron. Depending upon the final configuration, the
QDS II can acquire absorbance, transmission, reflectance, and fluorescence microspectra. And with the
zoomable optics, the sampling areas range from 25 to 250 microns2 with a working distance of 100 mil-
limeters. The QDS II opens up a new realm in microspectroscopy.
The QDI QDS II Stereomicrospectrophotometer features a scientific grade CCD detector, optional
TE cooling of the detector for enhanced stability and lower noise levels, spectral grade optics for the
stereomicroscope with zoom feature, a high-resolution color digital imaging system, a computer running
Windows XP Professional and an integrated spectral analysis and instrument control software package.
The instrument is easy to install, simple to use, and will give many years of trouble-free service.
